Lisa Rinna vents to Eden following her fiery encounter with Kim at Kyle's game night. Also: Erika works on a music video, then jets off to Greece with Kyle; Lisa Vanderpump's son seeks his biological parents; and Dorit seeks common ground with Lisa Rinna and Eileen.

Why are the producers steadily trying to force an Eileen vs Dorit rivalry?   For me,  they are both one in the same.   They can't let go to matters when they start drama or rehash drama.   The only difference is Dorit seems to talk in circles way more and Eileen is more aggressive when she can't get her own way in conflict.   So yawn.   They need to move on from this.   Just two annoying women struggling for a storyline. 

As for Eden,  she's really fallen for the Lisa R trap.   How can she let Lisa talk her into the whole "Kim is mostly sober"  jive without follow up questions.   I'm still like giving major side eye how she can question Kyle and Kim's family dynamic.   One -  Kyle don't know her.   Two -  doesn't she have a computer with Internet access to read about Kim/Kyle/their momma??  Moreover,  I get annoyed with these newbies,  especially this franchise,  that play like they don't know about the Richards.   I swear in that moment Kyle should had told Eden to mind her damn business or seek some counseling to help her heal with losing her sister and recognized Rinna was behind this.   I can't wait for the reunion so Rinna can get called out.   

BTW,  who loves how Ken says "Rinna"  like it's a bad word.  ??

Overall this episode was bland.   I really thought there would be more to the whole Eden and Rinna convo at the store.   Yet same ol,  same ol Rinna doesn't want Kim sober because it means no storyline for her.

I couldn't really focus on Eden during the lunch because I am fascinated by Kyle's role within her family dynamics. She doesn't think Kim's addiction came from anywhere and I would normally give her a pass on her mom but Big Kathy sounds like she was very messed up. Any time someone asks about her family she looks like she needs to be resuscitated.

Kim may be close to death. If Kingsley's around.

Really, I wish Kyle would find her inner Nene, Bethenny or Kandi and tell these bitches to keep her sister's name and sobriety out of their mouths. They all need to be checked HARD in the moment - not 6 months later on twitter or in the blogs after the episode aired. She needs to show them that she ain't the one once and for all and then drop the mic and refuse to comment on their shit. Be damned if someone would invite me to lunch and it launch into a damn Al-Anon meeting that nobody asked for. Nobody invited Eden to be their sober coach. Be and remain seated. 

 

Eileen must have creamed herself when Dorit called to ask her to lunch to engage in her fave past time - rehashing shit. 

I wish the same for Kyle.  My brother is an alcoholic and it's true that people are terribly invasive and rude wanting to know "how he's doing" and just responding "fine" or "the same" is never enough - they push and push until you just have to get rude.  But no one dares to say anything to him about it - which is why I'm wondering where this "storyline" came from.  It's like Bravo tells people they have to bring it up and Kim is there taking a paycheck for deliberately participating in it.  Weird.  But I do sympathize with Kyle, who obviously doesn't want to be involved.

LOL at your comment about Eileen - and then she has the nerve to sit there and be all "I don't know where this is coming from or what you're talking about!"  Bitch please.

Ugh,  how Brandi is talking about Lisa R on WWHL she's making me "miss" her.   She would be the one person to set Lisa R in her place and she's actually right about Lisa R's intentions about lisa continuing to bring up Kim's sobriety.

Thank Dog for the house porn to cleanse my eyes from the horrific view that was Eden's breasticles!

LVP's scene with Max was sweet. Even though the dog was on the table, it cracked me up that he was passed out on the table!

Caught a preview for next week  on WWHL. Rinna needs to check herself!

Well Rinna has developed forgetfulness about the conversation with Eden.  Maybe Rinna needs to take a good look at the fact she overstates and twists conversations.   http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills/season-7/blogs/lisa-rinna/lisa-rinna-it-gave-me-chills  Eileen nneds to stop enabling Rinna and her accounts of conversations.

This epi should have been titled "It's Boring To Be Me" as it applied to every single Howife. I have no interest in seeing Dorito's kid opening his mouth to let food fall on the floor, or watch one of her stable of nannies iron. That was 5 minutes of my life that I will never get back. The only good line in the whole epi was Humpty Dumpty telling Mrs. Dumpty that she talks too much.

Both Dorito and Eden have botched boob jobs. Eden really needs to stay away from they keyhole type tops. And please stop talking about Kim. If she continues to be a story line (Does she or doesn't she? I don't care!) I will have to bow out. 

I ff'd past anything related to Erika Jane. She bores me to tears. 

So Dorito calls a meeting with Eileen to bring up how Eileen continues to bring up ___________(fill in the blank). Seriously? And all of these flashbacks to who said what last week, a month ago, or several years ago are coma inducing. Please get some new story lines!!!! 

The only interesting thing in the whole epi was LisaV's son looking for info on his bio parents. And they hardly showed anything of it. This show is really going downhill............

Kyle lived with her family, so outsiders maybe don't have any reason to comment or inquire about her mom.  Not every addict has a family member that suffered the same fate.  Eden is an addict not a researcher and reading her blog she is just absolutely oblivious and coming dangerously close to felony hash tag abuse.  http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills/season-7/blogs/eden-sassoon/eden-sassoon-i-felt-like-i-had-to

If someone were suffering from say kidney failure, would it be appropriate to grill family members or the patient about their health history or try and determine if it ran in the family?  Kyle has worked her own program and part of that was honoring her sister's wishes that it not be discussed publicly.

Eden inquisition of Kyle is an epic fail. 

Kyle's on a show that she brought her sister onto because she thought it would be good for her and I don't know how anyone who has met Kim would come to that conclusion. Now she's doing a show based on her life with her mom. Eden's questioning was absolutely ridiculous. I just find the positions Kyle takes with her family interesting and a bit sad. I don't think she owes Eden or anyone else an explanation but when I watch Kyle I just see mountains of denial.

We will never know had Kim not come on the show if she would have been better or worse off. There are times Kim has liked being on the show and times she has resented it.  I think the same could be said for most of the cast.  Kyle does talk about her unconventional upbringing.  She has said her mother didn't follow the rules.  Her mother putting the onus on her to take care of Kim, her mother wanting her Palm Springs house not to be sold for 10 years, so as not to be forgotten (at great expense to Kyle and Mauricio). Which does not equate to her mother being an addict.  I don't think Kyle is in denial, I think she has a tendency to see the good.  Even this week she did a video about letting her daughter Portia pick her own clothes, because her mother always dressed her.

Best package of the episode was seeing that freakin estate in Malibu. 

I thought LR and Eileen's impromptu dance was cute.

I didn't notice Eden's breasts because I was so focused on Dorit's screwed up breasts.  I'll have to do a relook.

Eden needs to back off Kyle.  You've met her twice.  Get to know Kyle first before asking personal questions.  I do think Eden is right about a lot of things regarding Kim but she's overstepping.  Unfortunately for Kyle,  Kim decided to make appearances on the show this season.  Kim is going to be discussed.  Kyle's relationship with Kim is going to be discussed.  Yeah, LR and Eden discussed Kim.  I don't have a problem with that.  Kim has problems.  Hello Kingsley.  And why didn't Kyle make it seriously clear that dog was not allowed in her home whether or not she was there or not?  What I see from all this is that Kyle is still enabling by trying to keep everything 'ok' but not totally dealing with Kim's problems.  She just wants to keep the peace.  And I get that to a certain extent.

Erika's video and trip to Greece...big yawn.  Erika is quite full of herself.  So is her paid friend.  'We' don't do manual labor.  What an asshole.

I did like the lunch with Dorit, Eileen and LR.  At least they resolved something....for the moment.  The fake accent just continues to grate.

Edited to add - I did like the scene with LVP and Max.  It was very touching.

What exactly are Kim's problems at this point in the show?  She is working on her recovery and trying to be a good grandmother to be.  Is Kyle not supportive because she doesn't beat Kim over the head about past bad behavior?  I think it is entirely realistic to move forward on a positive note.  I do not understand the likes of Rinna or Eden wanting to try and regurgitate the past.  maybe Eden likes to share war stories of her drunken behavior, clearly Kim does not.  I don't think either way is a guarantee of continued sobriety.  I am thinking Dorit is uncomfortable in her sobriety and that is why she keeps trying to dig into Kim's.

The dog thing for legal reasons will not be discussed.  Since Kyle is being sued.  We will never hear short of court transcripts what Kyle had to say to Kim about Kingsley being in her home.  It appears it has not put much of a dent in their relationship.

Except last season, as soon as Rinna backed off Yolanda, Brandi was singing her praises as she attacked Lisa. Remember, it was Brandi that set Kim and Rinna up to keep the heat/truth off of herself 2 seasons ago. Brandi would sell Kim down the river in a heart beat if Rinna/HH decided to take her, Brandi, under their wings. LOL

Im not understanding why people are saying that Eden, Rinna or  whoever need to stop talking about Kim and her supposed "sobriety".   If nasty ass, smug, yellow witchy tooth Kim doesn't want people talking about her, she can stay off the show.   Fuck that, she talks so much shit and goes after so many people without taking any responsibility for anything she does, so why shouldn't people be talking about her?  

Well, to be honest, I don't thing Kim needs to be on the show for Rinna to bring her/addictions up on camera over and over again, she did it last season even though Kim didn't film with her until the season was almost over.

Oh, and Rinna can talk about Kim as long as she keeps it to the facts she knows about and that would not include how Kyle feels or what Kyle thinks. I really doubt that Kyle talks to Rinna about anything involving her sister.

I rewound the Rinna/Eden conversation about 4 or 5 times and still couldn't pay enough attention to follow it.  What did get my attention though was Eden's tit trying to run away and escape out her armhole or something during her talking head.  That thing is perplexing and I hurt my head trying to figure out where it was going.  It definitely is not sitting right.  

Maybe I'll catch the second airing tonight and be able to pay better attention.

I'm not really stoked to be treated to another reading from the DSM-LR (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Lisa Rinna edition). Last year with the Hausenmausen, this year with Enabler. Is she dying for one of those commercials: "I'm not a therapist, but I play one on TV."

I don't get what Kim's request for an apology has to do with Rinna creepily fantasizing (seriously, her giddiness in the scene with Eden is perhaps the most twisted shit that's ever aired on a franchise that includes Taylor and Russell Armstrong) about her death days later.

Particularly since Rinna complied with said request by delivering that apology (thus admitting culpability) and lamented how she "should have gone high" but "went low" at the dinner. 

This city in particular suffers from the dearth of cast members willing to out and out drag the bullshit out of a messy bitch. I'm disappointed Dorit bothered reaching out to Eileen after the "stop talking you talk too much!" screaming. But I did get a chuckle out of watching Eileen hissing "can I finish" and pontificate in her talking head about Dorit's verbosity ... after she had just interrupted Dorit.

Truth be told, I would be perfectly happy if this show was just Kyle and Lisa hanging out, occasionally letting Mauricio show them fabulous real estate.

Erika going on about people being so offended by her videos as if she’s “Sex”-era Madonna was so eye roll-inducing, as is the seriousness with which everyone around her treats her “career.” Well, at least they’re getting paid handsomely for their acting efforts. 

Eden was being an overly invasive asshole under the auspices of wanting to “help” Kim. If she truly cares about helping alcoholics (and I don’t question that), she should become an AA sponsor. But questioning Kyle about Kim that way was out of order.

Dorit strikes me as a ridiculous person and the scenes of her at home reinforce my opinion. But she sees right through Eileen and calls her out on her shit so expertly that I can’t help but love her in those scenes. She was 100% right about Eileen trying to resuscitate Pantygate at every opportunity.

Yes please! And Portia can replace all the other housewives. In fact, I'd rather watch a full season of just Portia snapchatting in lieu of Eileen or Dorito rehashing pantygate with anyone who'll listen. Lisar and Eileen voguing on the video set was like the poor man's version of LVP/Kyle goofing around. 

Erika easily dropped $30K on that video shoot. I'm very curious to know if her record sales and appearance come close to breaking even with expenses. But I agree with her that Kyle seems like fun.

Eden's a pain in the ass. I get the sense she came onto the show with a grudge against the Richards sisters and she's just been waiting for any excuse to pick a fight. Since Kyle didn't kiss her feet she's obviously under fire. I though the whole thing was so aggressive and unnecessary. She's lucky Kyle didn't reach over and slap her titties off because that's what I'd have done. 

As always Rinna and Eileen continue to bring the dramatics. I guess they're soap stars so I shouldn't expect any less. But Lisa talking about how Kim is on the verge of death was wholly unnerving and sadistic. We finally got her off the show, please don't drag her back into this mess.

I cringed when Eden told Rinna that Kyle wasn't nice to her on game night.  WTF?  Does she expect everyone to try to hump her the way Dorit acted like she wanted to do?  I can't stand people like her.  Get over yourself.  Kyle was the model of hospitality at that game night.  Just because she didn't try to put her tongue down your throat doesn't mean she didn't like you.

 

I am convinced that LVP and Ken drug their dogs.  When I first saw the dog laying on it's side sleeping on the table at the adoption place, I thought it was a dog shaped purse of Lisa's.  That was so weird!

Oh no they are not going to take a trip down dinosaur road and make us relive the whole Kim debacle again?! And if they are bringing Eden on the show just to stir up all this Kim drama again I would rather she go back to wherever she came from. Eden should be more concerned about her botched boob job. The one side looked rippled. 

 I noticed that too.  Wait until she wears a low cut dress in front of Dorit's husband and he can't stop staring at that.  We'll move on to Boob-Gate. Dorit will buy her a bra and Eileen will have something new to harp on.

I thought Kyle was totally blindsided by Eden at that lunch.  And I too, have no interest in reliving Kim drama again.  But I see she pops up next week.  If this is what this Eden person is going to be all about, she can leave any time.

I did enjoy the Mauricio real estate viewing with Lisa and Ken.  And I was touched by Lisa in the adoption office.  Lisa throws out one liners and smart remarks many times to deflect, and it was moving to see her genuine reactions. 

I am sick of Erica Jayne (is that the name?).  I'm ok with Erica Girardi, but her other persona is wearing thin because it's the same thing over and over.   What I would like to see is her and Kyle having fun in Greece but I think instead we'll be treated to another performance.  Ho-Hum.

I didn't understand why Kyle went with Ericka.  I never got the sense that they were particularly close.  I think I hate the way Ericka talks, that monotone voice is very off-putting.

I really enjoyed the Lisa and family adoption scene.  So sweet to see.  And yeah, I love dogs, like too much, but just having the dog sprawled out on the table was a bit much.
